Well, if the LCD doesn't come on, I would first suspect one of the following issues:
- The LCD ribbon is not secured. See: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sch5ZW1idz4
- The SD image you are using is not the one we provided on the Google Drive. If you use the one supplied by RetroPie, you will not get support for the LCD, Power Button, or built-in GPA buttons.
- You aren't holding the power button on long enough. Hold it until the green light comes on (but you must be using our SD image).
- Your Raspberry Pi is upside-down (which seems unlikely).
Do you have a way to plug in via HDMI? That can help track down the problem.
If you plug in power directly to the Raspberry Pi, does it power up?
Maybe the first thing would be to post some photos of the setup, so we can see if there's anything obviously wrong.
